ORGANIZATION OF THE 145-MAN POLICE DEPARTMENT WAS FOUND TO BE INADEQUATE. NEW PROGRAMS, SUCH AS THOSE FOR BURGLARY PREVENTION AND COMMUNITY RELATIONS, WERE FOUND TO HAVE BEEN 'TACKED ON' RATHER THAN INTEGRATED INTO AN OVERALL ORGANIZATIONAL PLAN. THE ORGANIZATIONAL HIERACHY WAS FOUND TO BE CUMBERSOME AND INDISTINCT, PRECLUDING INTEGRATED DIRECTION AND CONTROL OF THE DEPARTMENT. A TRADITIONAL, RATHER THAN INNOVATIVE, NEW ORGANIZATION IS PROPOSED ON THE GROUND THAT A DEPARTMENT UNFAMILIAR WITH FUNDAMENTAL ORGANIZATIONAL CONCEPTS WOULD HAVE DIFFICULTY IMPLEMENTING MORE SOPHISTICATED ONES. IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT ACTIVITY AND WORK LOAD DATA BE COLLECTED AND A MANAGEMENT SURVEY UNDERTAKEN SO THAT DECISIONS CONCERNING MANPOWER ALLOCATION CAN BE MADE.
